Matthew 7 vs. 6 had a new meaning for me this morning. It is amazing that I have read this particular verse of the bible so many times before but today I had more insight to how the verse can and should be applied in my life as a woman. Matt 7 vs. 6 says “Do not give dogs what is sacred; do not throw your pearls to pigs. If you do, they may trample them under their feet, and then turn and tear you to pieces”.
The truth is I always saw the verse as a metaphor of some sort but never decoded it before.
A pearl is a precious gem, Invaluable priceless, It’s of high esteem.- A gem is something valued for beauty or perfection. It’s a treasure, a brilliant jewel polished for ornament
- Ornament is something that lends grace or beauty
- Sacred means something set apart for service or it can be defined as devoted exclusively to one use, service or purpose.
Now let’s take a look at the definition of a pig and a dog
According to Webster’s dictionary a pig means a dirty, gluttonous or repulsive person. Gluttonous means selfish desires beyond reason. Marked by excessive greed, never content and always wanting more.
Synonyms for Gluttonous: Greedy, acquisitive or repulsive- Repulsive means arousing aversion or disgust.
- Synonyms for repulsive: distasteful, horrible, horrid, obnoxious, repugnant, nasty, offensive
- •Pig equals Swine. Swine means a contemptible person
- •Contemptible means deserving contempt
- •Synonyms for Contempt: Scorn, disdain, disregard.
A dog means a flesh eating domestic mammal. According to webster’s dictionary it means a worthless or contemptible person.
The reason I broke down the core terms of that verse is for you to have a clearer understanding of where am coming from
The Point:
Ladies (dignified women of inner strength) are beautiful creations of God and he has deposited talents, charisma, strength, charm, good personalities, physical beauty, power and love above all to make our world a better place. In addition he made us to be partners of good men.
"Behind every successful man is a good woman". "A man who finds a wife finds a good thing". "And Adam saw her and called her woman because he recognized her as the flesh of his flesh and bone of his bones"
He saw eve and recognized her immediately. Something inside him clicked and connected with her; that’s how it was then and that’s how it should be now. The man who is worthy of you sees you and recognizes his helpmate, his soul mate and his friend immediately/instantly in you.
Unfortunately we ladies are in the habit of given our beauty, our pride, our dignity, our virginity, our substance, our bodies, our energy, our tears, our hearts, our spirits and above all our precious love (all these are our pearls our precious gems) to worthless pigs and dogs who do not know what to do with them.
They take your virginity and trample it under their feet and turn back to tear your sensitive heart apart and destroy dignity! You can’t blame these dogs because the bible says don’t give what is sacred to a dog.They simply don't know its value! Your love is sacred. Your heart is sacred. Your body is sacred.
Remember that I defined sacredness as something devoted to one use, purpose and service. And that purpose, that service and use is for the bones of your bones and the flesh of your flesh. It’s for your husband. Your sacred body is for him. Your sacred intelligence is to help him succeed. Because these dogs don’t understand what it is worth and how sacred and beautiful it is they trample it.
Remember we defined pigs as contemptible, gluttonous, dirty and repulsive people. Why then do we give our hearts to a selfish and offensive person? He obviously doesn’t know what to do with it. You know why because he is greedy, he is never satisfied, he will always want more and therefore he becomes a cheat. He will cheat and cheat and cheat on you over and over and over again, you know why because he is a greedy and acquisitive pig!
So my dear ladies why don’t we all save ourselves the heartaches and heartbreaks from people who have no worth give us. Remember always that you are a jewel and that means you are to be polished for ornament so as to lend grace and beauty to the man who is worthy of you. You have pearls that are sacred in your hands to offers such a worthy man i.e. the man who sees you recognizes you as the flesh of his flesh and the bone of his bones
If you are currently heartbroken remember that only a pig or a dog can trample the precious sacred pearl you gave. So cleans your eyes he is not worthy of your tears. Unless you would rather love a disgusting pig or an uncultured dog!
The only person that is really worthy of your tears will never bring them down your eyes in the first place.
Take care sis and remember you are priceless stones. Invaluable gems.Love you all
